Even going back a few years, leaving home without my wallet was simply unthinkable. It had everything life demanded The wallet was a storehouse. It held my driving license, my credit cards, loyalty cards, gym card, a pile of receipts, and my family picture. All the survival man-essentials were in the wallet except for the shaving kit. The behemoth wallet ruled on borrowed time. It should've been amended, dissolved, and dethroned a long time ago. Finally, it happened. And thank God it did. We can now jump out or go for a drive in our shorts without having to log a wallet in our shorts pocket. You have 'em all on your phone. And if you're an iPhone user in Kentucky or Maryland, you can even have your driver's and IDs on your Apple Wallet.
That should've been the last nail in the coffin for the physical wallet. But, that's not the case. Digital devices can still glitch, die down, lose connection, or simply stop working. And at such times, you need a backup. Hence, most of us still physically carry our most essential cards. But luckily, it's come down to 2-3 cards for most modern men and women. And that has led to an age of new streamlined slim wallets that exemplifies taste and class.
